Secretary of State Rubio detailed the U.S. operation that took out Iran’s nuclear facility, emphasizing its speed, accuracy, and lack of escalation: “Iran had these nuclear facilities. We’ve known what they were for a long time. The president conducted a precise campaign. It wasn’t a prolonged war, it was a 24-hour operation. B-2 bombers left the mainland of the United States, came over a defined target, dropped payload, 14 bunker-busting missiles, right into the holes of the site. They turned around and went home. That’s it. It didn’t involve five days of fighting or ground troops. The goal was simple: destroy the nuclear facility, obliterate it, and move on.”
